So while not "pins", the interrupts are separately specified in the
SoC's list of interrupts in the GIC:

RK3588 has:

201  irq_hdmitx0_oavp
202  irq_hdmitx0_ocec
203  irq_hdmitx0_oearcrx
204  irq_hdmitx0_omain
392  irq_hdmitx0_hpd

and another set of all of them for hdmitx1

and RK3576 using the same hdmi IP has:

370  irq_hdmitx_oavp
371  irq_hdmitx_ocec
372  irq_hdmitx_oearcrx
373  irq_hdmitx_omain
399  irq_hdmitx_hpd

so I guess the fifth interrupt is meant to be the hotplug?
Though I guess this should be specificed in the name-list too.

From the SoC's manual it looks like the controller is set up from
different modules.
Like AVP is the audio-video-packet-module, there is a Main and CEC Module
as well as a eARC RX controller inside. I'd guess it might be possible
other SoC vendors could leave out specific modules?


TL;DR I think those clocks and interrupts are dependent on how the
IP core was synthesized, so for now I'd think we can only guarantee
that they are true for rk3588 and rk3576.

So I guess they should move to the rockchip-specific part of the binding
until we have more hdmi-qp controllers in the field?
